I need information!!! I have a gg-grandmother named HOLLAND OBEDIENCE DRAKE who first married Hiram Wade, then after he died, married my gg-grandfather, THOMAS COLUMBUS YOUNG on June 23, 1851 in Warren County, Ky. Nothing I have looked at tells me who her parents were, where they came from, if she had any brothers or sisters, NOTHING, NADA, ZIP! I have a picture of her with two of her children, and she was a really formidable looking woman! Maybe that's why no one is claiming her! She and Thomas had 4 children:

John Bruce Young b/1861 d/25 Dec. 1939 m/Mollie Hawks in 1887
David Columbus (Buck) Young b/1865 d/29 June, 1926 m/Lillian Cardwell in 1888
Julia Ann Young b/1869 d/Feb 1927 m/Joe McKinley in 1901
Andrew Warren (Pete) Young b/7July, 1871 d/16 Oct.,1941 m1/Matilda Elizabeth Sowders 24 Dec, 1895 she d/22 Apr 1920 m2/Laura Cardwell Adcock 21 October, 1939 she d/24 Dec, 1959

All of these people were in Warren County, Ky. Can anyone out there help me? Any and all help appreciated.
